Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
This anthology of material originally presented over the past 25 years on Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion radio show on Minnesota Public Radio is a delight from start to finish. The last cassette alone, which is a compilation of songs from various musical groups who have appeared on the show and the cast of the show, would make this production worth purchasing. But the stories from Lake Wobegon and other reminiscences by Keillor are equally wonderful vignettes of life in the Midwest. If there are natives of the region who may object to the author's often comical characterizations of the denizens of the "town that time forgot," they should just get over it and realize that Keillor is writing about small-town life in Anywhere, U.S.A., and lovingly at that. The stories range from the remarkably moving "Truckstop," about an elderly couple who become separated on a road trip, to the hilarious "Clarence Cleans His Roof," which taps into the hazards of the formidable winter weather of the Midwest. It is clear that careful selection was made of the stories to be included, from the many they could have chosen, to assure not only high quality but also balance in the anthology. Highly recommended.--Mark Pumphrey, Polk Cty. P.L., Columbus, NC Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.

    Prairie Home Companion

    Garrison Keillor at his best. His insight into the grass roots people of the northern Midwest/Plains states is amazing. Takes me right back there.

    Lake Woebegone Fans Must-Have!

    For years, Garrison Keillor & company have been charming NPR listeners every Saturday. This wonderful collection is interspersed with original songs and Lake Woebegone stories, seven stories which were not avaliable on prior collections. Well worth having--makes for pleasant traveling on long car rides.
